Orchid

Autumn is coming, do you know what you need to pay attention to in the usual maintenance process? Today, I have sorted out the experiences of orchid friends and shared them with you. These six points are indispensable to the management of orchids in autumn.

1. Typhoon prevention

The early autumn of every year is the season of frequent typhoons, so we should pay special attention to the preparations for preventing typhoons, which must not be taken lightly; otherwise, the consequences will be unimaginable.

2. Shading and preventing Yang

The climate contrast in autumn is relatively large, a period of time is like summer, a period of time is like winter, especially in early autumn, it is known as the autumn tiger, the weather at this time is mainly hot and hot, and when it is sunny, it is no different from summer, so, during this period of time, we should do a good job of shading and preventing the sun.

3. Timely watering to prevent dryness and humidity

The climate in autumn is very dry, there is no saying that the autumn wind rises and the dust flies. So the pot noodles of orchids dry quickly in autumn. If the orchid is planted in mud pots and large-grain plants, it should be watered at the right time to prevent the orchid from drying up. If orchids raised in purple sand pots and plastic pots should prevent the soil from getting too wet and rotten roots, especially those with fine plant materials and poor air permeability, special attention should be paid to them. Watering and shading of orchids in autumn are very important. If the water is not properly watered, it will cause the orchid root to dry up and die; if the water is watered too much, the new orchid root will encounter heat and disease, resulting in inestimable losses, so watering orchid is the key.

4. Change the basin and ramet in time

As soon as the Autumn Equinox passed, the weather began to turn cooler. At this time, the orchid can be changed into pots and split. The advantage of changing the pot in cool days is that the new bud point of the old Reed head of bluegrass is much faster than that of the old Reed head in winter, the germination rate is also higher, and the survival rate of new buds is also higher. But at this time, ramets should pay special attention to the disinfection of the wound to prevent bacteria from invading.

5. Prevention and treatment of diseases and pests

Autumn is the season of high incidence of orchid diseases and insect pests, so it is very important to control orchid diseases and insect pests in autumn. If it is not properly maintained, bluegrass will scorch its head (scorched tip) in the event of diseases and insect pests; in serious cases, it will lead to plant death.

6. Enter the room in time

On rainy days in autumn, the temperature drops obviously, especially after late autumn, sometimes the temperature drops to 10 ℃. When the cold air moves south, the temperature will be even colder. At this time, if you still put the orchid outdoors, you should move the orchid indoors in time (because the orchid is less than 10 ℃, the orchid basically stops growing). Remember to close the window at night when the temperature is low.
